Pimp my website, win an ARC!

So here's the deal. I have two websites, and I maintain them both myself, manually. That means nothing changes unless I go in and change it. The sites are here:

http://www.seananmcguire.com/
http://miragrant.com/

Parts of these sites are quite out of date, because I have been a busy little bee. We are thus going to play a little game.

Step 1: Go to my website. Either one.
Step 2: Poke around until you see something that could use improvement. A typo, a missing link, an unclear question on the FAQ, even a missing question on the FAQ. (Pages that aren't linked at all, like the Field Guide, or don't exist, don't count. Those are future improvements, not current issues.
Step 3: Post here, suggesting a correction/update.
Step 4: Step away from the website.

I will be making updates and corrections, partially based on this post, for the next week. On Friday, I will use our friend, random number generator, to choose a winner of an ARC of One Salt Sea (US-only, unless you can help with postage). No matter what, everybody benefits, since the end result should be an easier-to-use website.

Game on!

Not going to actually read through the other comments, but I found an issue with http://miragrant.com/newsflesh.php

The contents links I assume are to take you to that part of the page. Right now, they do nothing but change the link in my URL bar. They don't change what I'm looking at at all.

Now I'm going to pay attention to my kitty, who apparently isn't loved because my hands are on the keyboard and not her.

Oh, good catch! The a name links were wrong. I fixed them, and it works now.

Glad to help! Especially with added bonus of maybe getting a book out of it! Because as humans we are basically greedy bastards, right?
